Example
An agent that provisions an account for a new hire:Check for an existing account
An Okta User Get All action sets Search Query to a filter on the new hire’s email so a model step can confirm no account already exists.
Create the user
An Okta User Create action sets First Name, Last Name, Email, and Login, and leaves Activate on to enable the account.

Confirm the stored API token is valid and has not expired or been revoked, and that it has permission to manage users in your Okta org.

The Login is the username and must be formatted as an email address. Supply a value such as
jdoe@example.com.User not found

Search Query must use Okta filter syntax, for example
profile.lastName sw "Smi". An expression that does not parse returns no results.
